We can do the MDX also but must stay on the 5w-20 due to being under Extended Warranty still.

+1 Million
VR1 SAE 60, and post a uoa on the oil PLEASE!!!


I'll 3rd that!

What would be the amount mileage you would put on with the VR1

 

[wemay]

MS5K 10W-30

The safe and easy bet is one of the 5W30 multigrades. But that's a bit boring.

I would mix the Magnatec 0W20 with the VR1 60, Mix the 5W20 with the 20W50, and in summer run the monograde SAE30 as is. I would aim for a thick 30 grade viscosity, like a KV100 = 11.5 cSt. Perfect of a 90's Toyota.

The 10W30 and 10W40 are good summer oils or for top-ups.

Plan B: Throw them all in a big box and choose blindly each oil change. You can't go wrong!

PPHM 5W-30...save the super heavy stuff for summer.

Seconded.


third, keep everyone happy by mixing away like crazy

 

[Olas]

Pour them all into a big barrel, along with liqui moly mOs2 & ceratec, a splash of MMO, a sprinkle of Kreen and a splash of AutoRX. Give it a stir and top up from your barrel of magic mix, then send samples for analysis every 100 miles.
Deal?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ LOL

Ok looks like it will be a mix for this OC. Then summer will run a short VR1.
